Description

I've started to write all of my personal notes in Quarto, and as I use the Zettelkasten method, what would be really great would be to have some kind of two-way links between pages. One way to do this would be to have an option to have some kind of 'what links here' section at the bottom of each page to make links more bidirectional.

Thank you for the amazing project!

Research direction

The issue proposes adding a “what links here” section to each website page to provide bidirectional links for Zettelkasten notes. No implementation files, tests, or entry points are identified; first determine where website output and page links are generated, then define the expected backlink behavior and its tests.
